    • This chapter is about how to steer conversations to different topics without making things seem restrictive. One critical aspect of talking to people is ability to transition between topics seamlessly. Many people struggle with this because they often want to discuss specific things and end up making the conversation rigid.


    • The key rule to be remembered here is the “yes, and” rule. Whenever someone states a proposition, your response should be to agree to it, and contribute a line that will keep the conversation going. Simply agreeing isn’t enough, since it brings the conversation to a dead end. Disagreeing is even worse, because it might make you come across as combative and unsympathetic.


    • Don’t be afraid to enter into conversational topics that you don’t know much about. You might just end up learning something new, and you’ll see that your fears about coming across as dumb are unfounded. If you keep conversations open-ended, people will naturally want to talk to you because they will feel like they can share anything with you.


    • A more negative version of the “yes, and” rule is the “yes, but” rule. It’s similar, but the latter immediately makes the other person think of you as argumentative. This is because, unlike the “yes, and” rule, it doesn’t help the conversation flow.

    Patrick King

    00:16:21 Low Confidence Characteristics

    00:22:05 Am I Unconfident—or Do I Have Anxiety?

    00:24:09 The Spotlight Effect

    00:30:53 Feelings Versus Automatic Thoughts

    00:41:15 Your Confidence Resume


    Stop making decisions based on fear of failure, rejection, anxiety, and

    judgment.


    Life is full of possibilities, but can you take advantage of them? Gain

    the confidence to be all that you can be.


    Not just “fake it ‘til you make it” or “just smile more.”


    The Confidence Formula is filled with real, actionable advice for your

    life TODAY. It’s not generic, borderline useless advice you can read in

    any blog post online. This book will take you on a deep dive into the

    depth of confidence, self-perception, and the psychology of confidence –

    understand yourself so you can break through your mental barriers.


    Everything from psychology, biology, and even cognitive behavioral

    therapy is referenced in giving you the tools to feel more invincible on

    a daily basis.


    Finally feel comfortable in your own skin and become your own source of

    confidence.


    Patrick King is an internationally bestselling author and sought-after

    social skills coach and trainer. He was also one of the plumpest

    children you’ve ever seen, and understands the pains and processes of

    confidence like few others. This book was written by someone who knows

    exactly what you’re facing and how you’re hurting.


    Become bolder, more fearless, and good enough. Stop thinking about the

    “what ifs” in your life.


    Confidence will turn your life into a series of endless opportunities.

    Your goals, your social circle, your relationships, your career, and

    your life – confidence is the key. Confidence creates the life you want

    and lets you smash through goals, while making sure you never feel

    invisible, waste your potential, or feel paralyzed from anxiety.


    Quiet the voice in your head and live how you want to. Stop feeling so

    restricted.

    • Vulnerability is essential for human connection, and appropriate self-disclosure creates trust, authenticity, and intimacy. Self-disclosure is intentionally sharing personal information that other people wouldn’t know unless we chose to tell them. The most effective kind of self-disclosure is the one that only slightly pushes the current state of affairs toward more intimacy.


    • Friendship-making is an upward spiral of mutual and incremental disclosures over time. Keep things symmetrical, gradual, positive, and small at first.

    100% scientifically-proven ways to make friends quickly, turn enemies into friends, gain trust, and be flat-out likable.


    Utilize the most interesting, shocking, and counterintuitive findings in psychological science to simply make people want to be around you.The Science of Likability takes over 60 seminal scientific and psychological studies and breaks them down into real, usable guidelines and tips to create the presence you have always wanted. Every piece of advice in this book to increase your social standing and likability factor is 100% backed by in-depth, peer-reviewed research, and it goes far beyond simple common sense and intuition.


    Learn how to subconsciously make yourself likable, trustworthy, and intelligent.


    You can get a new haircut and wardrobe, and you even learn knock-knock jokes. But likability is something more. It's subconscious, and it's about the small signs that signal our brains to let their guards down, seek others out, and embrace them. We know what to do if we want to make someone hate us - we now also know what to do to become someone's favorite person.


    Understand what makes people tick, and strategically give it to them.


    There are seminal studies from (in)famous researchers such as Sigmund Freud, Ivan Pavlov, Stanley Schachter, and Daniel Goleman, but also the most up-to-date discoveries from 2019 - all insightful, analytical, sometimes surprising, but most importantly effective and actionable. Pair that with the insight and human intelligence factor of bestselling author and social skills coach Patrick King, and you have a guide that can be read equally for education as for helpful, real advice. Patrick's writing draws of a variety of sources, from scientific research, academic experience, coaching, and real life experience. Discover:- How to take advantage of people's memories for your sense of charm.- The power of equity in relationships and friendships.- A literal formula for "friendship chemistry."- The real way to use eye contact to build trust.- Why tripping and being vulnerable in front of people is positive.- Universal definitions of charisma, wit, and humor - seriously. Universal.


    Being likable unlocks the doors to everything you want in life.


    A better career? You better believe that the people with the most promotions and highest salaries aren't just the most qualified. Better love life? Being likable makes you a potential love interest to anyone you want. Better relationships and friendships? Not only that, but you open the door to people wanting to be friends with you. Likability is the hidden force that makes people appear to be lucky in life and receive more opportunities than they know what to do with. Likability drives us forward, not intelligence or luck.
